Summary: Change the source for the weather plug-in from weather.com to yr.no

Area: My Weather

Description:

I see that there is an older post in the plug-in forum about this that gets bumped now and then without anything really happening so I tought I'd try in here.

There are mostly norwegians that are posting in the thread, but yr.no is a great source for weather for the entire world:

yr.no

As an example here is the weather for Maun in Botswana:

Maun

And the weather info is easily available in XML, PHP and GRIB.

Thanks for adding this, I never got any developers to respond to my previous post https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-1-talk-45/weather-channel-alternatives-51555/ Maybe that was the wrong place and we might have better luck here!

for what its worth the weather forecasts here in Adelaide using the current source are almost invariably incorrect

I would love to see an alternate source to the current one

The weather forecasts here in Townsville are almost always incorrect too. I would also like to be able to try another source.
